1) Summary: Need optometrist to comment on vision test productName: David Gewirtz ZDNet
Category: Lifestyle and FitnessEmail: query-bbdt@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: ZDNet
Deadline: 12:00 PM EST - 1 October
Query:
I am reviewing https://www.eyeque.com/visioncheck/ and I'd like
an optometrist to answer the question: Could this thing work?
What are your thoughts about it? The idea is that with the
pandemic, people may not be able to go face to face, and a
remote device can help. If you want, also let me know how your
practice is doing. Is business down? By how much?
Requirements:
You must be a doctor of optometry or ophthalmology. Please
provide when your doctorate was issued and at what school. Add
any additional comments on the Eye Que device based on your
medical experience. I will use one, perhaps two submissions in
my article. If you want, provide a link to your practice or
Twitter feed.

add-ons for a few bucks more. I am also looking to understand
how COVID has change or upped the ante here. Have retailers come
up with more tricks? What should consumers be aware of? Please

know your website, your title, and your pronouns. I'm on a super
crazy deadline so I can really only consider quotes over email
